My invention relates to twine holders, par ticularly of the type used tohold twine wound on cones for withdrawal as used.

The principal object of my invention is to provide a simple andinexpensive twine holder of the type mentioned.

A further object of my invention is to provide a twine holder of thetype mentioned which may be used either by mounting the same on a wall,or setting the same on a table, desk or counter; in either case thetwine being held so as to be served rapidly and conveniently asrequired.

Further objects of my invention will appear from the following detaileddescription thereof.

In the drawing:

Figure 1 is a perspective of a twine holder constructed in accordancewith this invention.

Figure 2 is an elevation of a twine holder with the twine cone mountedthereon.

My new twine holder is formed from asingle piece of wire one end ofwhich is bent into a circle 1, which may serve as a base for the holderwhen it is desired to use the same on a counter, desk, table or similarfiat surface. The long end of the wire from the point of closure of thecircle, is bent diametrically across the circle a distance ofapproximately one-third of the diameter as indicated by the section 2.It is then bent into an upwardly extending arm 3 and next downward- IVto form a downwardly extending arm 4, the arms 3 and 4 convergingupwardly.

From the lower extremity of arm 4.- the wire continues the diametricprolongation of the element 2 forming an element 5 which extends beyondthe circumference as clearly shown in the drawing. The wire is then bentupwardly to form a standard 6 into which a loop 7 is bent; it is neXtcarried horizontally over the circular base and above the upper end, thepoint of convergence, of the arms 3 and 4. The end of the wire is thenformed into a loop 8.

In using the device, the twine cone is mounted on the arms 3 and 4,which extend through the conical core of the cone. The free end of thetwine is drawn through the Serial No. 533,114.

loop 8 which serves as a guide as the twine is withdrawn from theIcone.The loop 7 may be used for mounting the device on a wall or verticalframe by means of a screw or similar attaching means 9.

It will be understood that numerous modifications within the spirit andscope of my invention may be made without departing from said inventionas defined in the appended claims.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desireto secureby Letters Patent is.

1. A device of the character described comprising a single piece ofwire, said wire being formed into a circular base member, and upwardlyconverging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive acone of twine.

2. A device of the character described comprising a single piece ofwire, said wire being formed into a circular base member. upwardlyconverging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive acone of twine, and a guide for twine from said cone.

8. A device of the character described comprising a single piece ofwire, said wire being formed into a circular base member, upwardlyconverging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted to receive acone of twine, a standard upwardly disposed out side said base, and aloop in said standard to serve as a guide for twine from said cone.

4. A device of the character described comprising a single piece ofwire, said wire being formed into a circular base member,

upwardly converging arms disposed within said circular base, adapted toreceive a cone of twine, a standard upwardly disposed outside said base,a loop formed in said standard for attaching the device to a verticalsup-- port, and a second loop in said standard to serve as a guide fortwine from said cone.
